New Year, New Joys:

Adventure Awaits at JOALI Maldives

Breakfast in the Treetops

Venture into the lush greenery to discover the whimsical Manta Tree House, a captivating creation by renowned artist Porky Hefer from Cape Town, South Africa. Drawing inspiration from the Maldives’ remarkable population of over 5,000 reef manta rays, this experiential art piece is a true marvel of indigenous architecture.

Gracefully suspended amidst treetops and intricately woven with natural materials, the Manta Tree House presents a whimsical setting for private dining. Relish a hearty breakfast while enjoying ocean views framed by gently swaying coconut palms.

Hammam Haven

Our traditional Turkish Hammam, crafted in exquisite marble, beckons you into a haven of tranquillity. Choose between two opulent treatments for a blissful escape. The Aromatic Detox Hammam embodies timeless cleansing rituals, blending Hammam exfoliation with Ayurvedic aromatherapy, soothing your skin and replenishing its moisture for a radiant glow.

The Hammam Journey combines a scrub with a full-body massage focused on your marmas (vital energy centres). Whether you seek stress release and relaxation or desire a boost of invigoration, we tailor each experience to meet your individual needs, using an exclusive range of aromatic oils.

Padel in Paradise

Experience the excitement of Padel on our open-air court, surrounded by coconut trees and tropical vegetation. This trendy blend of tennis and squash is not only easy to learn but also wonderfully inclusive. Since games are won through strategy and skill, not just strength, Padel is ideal for couples and families to compete together. Learn the ropes with our introductory classes, or book private lessons to sharpen your skills.

Clay Creations

Delve into the enchanting world of ceramics at JOALI’s Art Studio, where clay offers a dynamic canvas for emotion and expression under the skilful guidance of our Resident Artist. Discover the timeless magic of the pottery wheel or learn the art of hand building. Those on longer stays can explore ceramics glazing, which breathes colourful life into clay creations, making for cherished JOALI keepsakes. Kids can craft sea animal sculptures at our Young Artist sessions, while the entire family can find joy through creativity with a private ceramics class.

Marine Conservation

The JOALI Reef Restoration Programme (JRRP) stands as our tribute to coral reefs, known as the rainforests of the ocean. Be part of this conservation effort by planting “fragments of hope” — tiny corals nurtured in our very own nurseries. After about a year of careful tending, the corals are ready to go out into the world! Our team transplants the fragments onto the house reef, fostering its regeneration. You can also join a guided tour of our coral nursery, led by our resident marine biologist.
